I took the R up to French Gulch (northern Ca.) on Saturday. A friend of mine took his new 440ex as well. Lots of open, flat trails with alot of fire breaks. Lots of up-hill, loose, small rock terrain. Did lots of tight woods riding as well. I tell you what, I rode hard all day and the only thing sore is my legs. Only because of the standing up stuff. Sliding around the corners in 4th gear pegged is absolutely awesome. Just point and go. That quad ran sweet. No problems at all with the quad. The only problem I had was I ripped a 1 1/2 inch tear in the front tire. Almost brand new too. I had to ride back crippled for over 7 miles. I have some new Hiper Beadlocks coming this week and will have to go back up this weekend. Anyone from around the Redding area? If so, e-mail me and we'll go. bjbmccurdy@sbcglobal.net
